Re: Survivor Gabon: Interview with Crystal - "I made sure Randy had a royal exit."

Hopefully all this feedback, which I'm sure he's seen, has taught Kenny that having called Charlie " the gay guy" would have been a better choice of terms...or even "the little guy" since I think he was by far the smallest guy on that original Kota.
And I agree, I think we can all come up with some pretty offensive terms to describe whatever group(s) we belong to, that we wouldn't like to have our teammates using to us.
And back to Crystal--great interview, and makes her seem very likeable.

I'm sure Randy's "posse" and "gang' speech hit those very nerves in Crystal that some of you are speaking of. It's all hurtful even if the person speaking it doesn't realize how hurtful it is.

Upon watching Matty's whining, I have to ask myself how long it took Crystal to finally snap. We only saw portions of it and can't deny that Matty knew how to whine with the best of them. I do, however, give him the benefit of the doubt and believe that it was the game that reduced him to that and not how he is in the real world.

I'm all for equal opportunity, even when it comes to hateful words
Ditto -- also gay and I don't agree either. It does depend on context whether a word like that is just a thoughtless term or something far more hateful. I don't believe that Kenny's feelings towards Charlie were in any way more hateful than Randy and Corinne's words about the others.

Corinne, especially, is black and rotten to the core -- Randy, not so much.

BTW, no group uses gay slurs more than gays themselves (mostly in a comical, smarmy way). Sort of like African-Americans being able to use the "N" word, but whites can't.
